KiMs is one of Norway's most iconic snack brands, appearing here alongside its primary competitor, Maarud. The product shown, Golden Gourmet Grillet Løk, is part of KiMs' premium line of ridged potato chips. The brand traces its roots back to Odense, Denmark, where it was founded by Odense Marcipanfabrik in 1961, though it established a very strong and distinct presence in the Norwegian market shortly after.
Today, KiMs Norway is a flagship brand under Orkla Confectionery & Snacks Norge. Manufacturing for the Norwegian market predominantly takes place at their dedicated factory in Skreia, Norway, utilizing locally sourced potatoes. While the KiMs brand technically exists in both Denmark and Norway, they have evolved into separate entities under different corporate ownership; the Norwegian branch is managed by the Nordic conglomerate Orkla, while the Danish branch is owned by Intersnack.
